#Garissa_Attack My Burden to Bear?!! There comes a time when we feel that the very people meant to protect us have failed... that the issue of my security is just another speech after a horrific terror attack, another headline or top story.. another #hashtag trending on twitter! But does it always have to be like that??! Whatever ran through the mind of that young boy or girl as the attacker aimed his gun, when life flashed right before their eyes: when a student hid under a bed holding on for dear life; or when they went for the nearest thicket or watch a fellow friend die we will never know... survivors are left with scars that are left only to time to heal... the rest of us live in fear, looking over our shouldiers and always suspicious of the people around us because no one can guarantee your safety any more... this time it was 147 INNOCENT souls.. we dare not imagine what may happen next... we dare not imagine. Terrorism is a thorn in our side and as a nation this is our fight.. muslim, christian, hindu, buddhist its our fight to end together. Westgate, Mpeketoni, Lamu, Nairobi each one of the victim did not deserve to have their life cut short like that.. let us be vigilant... these people live among us.. Do not fear pointing one out like the chaff they really are. If we dont report them today, tomorrow their action will be another number of souls lost.. Let Garissa University attack be the last straw. ONE KENYA, ONE PEOPLE I do not see any denomination painted all over that...! Lets take care of each other.. Let Garissa be the last straw. Rest in Peace Garissa Comrades
